Russian strongman Vladimir Putin butts heads with Western leaders over his invasion of Ukraine, but he might be headbanging on Nov. 19 when his favorite DJ plays the Kremlin at a party thrown by his Ministry of Culture.

Moscow’s DJ Fenix, who samples Black Sabbath, AC/DC and Led Zeppelin when he spins in Ibiza, told me on Friday he grew up listening to “the dinosaurs of music” on his father’s cassettes.

“Your parents teach you to respect your elders,” Fenix, born Alexander Mamonov to a military family, said.

The Kremlin gala next month marks the first time EDM (electronic dance music) will be played in the Russian seat of government.

While Putin isn’t known to attend raves, a YouTube video from 2011 shows his prime minister Dimitry Medvedev busting some moves to more traditional pop music.

Fenix, who often travels with Brooklyn Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov, played volleyball before he became a DJ and hopes to sponsor a youth team when he gets rich.

“Sports teaches young kids teamwork and discipline they can use later in life,” he said. Even when they are greeting the dawn in Ibiza.
